November Books That Did Not 'Make the Grade'

This is going to be a new installment in Shelly-Beans Book Reviews because I do not want you, my readers, to think that it takes me a whole month to read one or two books (although that may be the case every once in a while.)  In reality, there are many times when I will read a few chapters of 3 or 4 books but not be able to finish them before I find one that captivates me enough to read it in it's entirety, which will then reviewed here.

So to let you all know what books I couldn't get into or, 'didn't make the grade' and why, I will be writing a sentence or two as to why they didn't get a full review on them at the end of each month.  I hope you enjoy them as well as my regular reviews and thank you for your support in reading my reviews.  Enjoy!

NOTE: Although I cannot get into a certain book now does not mean I will not try to read it again in the future, so when you see a book end up in a 'didn't make the grade' post, do not be surprised if I eventually do read and review it.  Every book deserves a second chance, after all, and some books are meant to be read during different points in our lives.

Here are is the book I tried to read during the month of November but either didn't engage me or interest me enough to read fully:

The Gun Seller by Hugh Laurie- Although Laurie has a unique writing style, the story did not flow well which led me to being confused more often than not.  His plot was all over the place, his character introductions were not the best and personally, I had a hard time appreciating his British humor.

I look forward to your comments and thanks for reading!
